Chapter 300: Mu Siyin, Are You Deaf or Dead?
In the mean time, a chime broke the silence in the land temple.
Master Hu, who was holding a white chess piece in his hand, immediately changed his facial expression after hearing the chime.
“This is bad!”
Shi Beiyu was wondering what happened. As he heard Master Hu’s exclamation, his heart sank. “Sir, could it be…”
Master Hu did not wait for Shi Beiyu to complete his sentence. He dropped the chess piece and look at him in the eye. “Your girlfriend took out the blood-red beads and her sister is already here. Hurry!!”
Shi Beiyu was in shock, but he dared not delay another second. He got up and called Shi Ran, who was dozing off at the side. Together with Master Hu, the three of them rushed towards the city.

The weather was gradually getting colder. Due to her old age, Old Madam Mu had gone to bed long ago.
Mu Heyuan had no s.e.xual interest in Li Tongzhi these days. On a side note, he was somehow aroused when he thought about the huge fight he had with Director w.a.n.g during the day. After staying in the study for a while, he made up an excuse relating to work and went out to meet Director w.a.n.g.
Of course, Li Tongzhi had her suspicions. However, since Mu Heyuan said he had things to settle at work, she dared not question him and just let him be.
Mu Xingyu asked, “Mom, why aren’t you stopping him? It’s so late now. Are you not afraid that he will mess around?”
How could Li Tongzhi not be afraid?
“Your dad already said that its work-related. He will be back soon.”
Mu Xingyu pouted. “You still have to watch out! My dad is at the age where men like to cheat. Don’t let those homewreckers out there seize the chance!”
Li Tongzhi became hypervigilant upon hearing those words and agreed. “You are right. If he is going out at night next time, I will make sure to follow him!”
Mu Xingyu looked at the time and said, “Mom, I think it’s time for you to go look for Mu Siyin.”
Li Tongzhi nodded. “Give me the sedative. I’ll go and see what she’s up to.”
“Alright”
Mu Xingyu’s sedative was a spray type. Once someone took a whiff, sleepiness and dizziness would kick in within two minutes. By five minutes, the person would have completely pa.s.sed out. It was guaranteed to serve its purpose, but it was also very expensive.
Li Tongzhi took the sedative and went upstairs with guilt. She knocked on Mu Siyin’s door. “Mu Siyin!”
There was no reply even after some time. Li Tongzhi frowned and banged on the door harder. “Mu Siyin, open the door! I have something to say!”
Still no reply.
At that moment, Li Tongzhi couldn’t help her irritation.
This Mu Siyin must have deliberately refused to open the door!
With that thought in mind, Li Tongzhi put her hand on the doork.n.o.b and attempted to turn it. Surprisingly, the door opened with a click.
With delight, she pushed the door open then walked in arrogantly. “Mu Siyin! Are you deaf or dead? Can’t you hear…”
She stopped midsentence as she saw Mu Siyin sleeping soundly on the bed, buried under the quilt.
Mu Siyin’s room had dim yellow lights, and Li Tongzhi also stood far away from her. Thus, she did not notice Mu Siyin’s hair color.
She sneakily stretch her head and called, “Mu Siyin?”
Mu Siyin remained quiet.
Li Tongzhi was overjoyed. “Sleeping like a log! That’s fortunate then. I don’t have to use the sedative.”
